The glamorous styling recreating old Hollywood’s smoldering vibe was done by the famous Paris couturier designer Leon Cliyne exclusive designs for Ann Lauren Clothing.™

European Photographer John Glantz inspired by the work of the great George Hurrell. Glantz thinks photography today lacks the depth and style of George Hurrell the most famous photographer of the 20’s-40’s era! Hurrell captured the sensual essence of Hollywood sirens; Veronica Lake, Rita Hayworth, Liz Taylor, Ava Gardner, Claudette Colbert, Racquel Welch, Sophia Loren to Brooke Shields. John Glantz desire is to revive this lost art of George Hurrell’s Hollywood.

Glantz embarked on a journey to the states leaving his hometown in the Netherlands to shoot the perfect woman that embodied the essence and classic beauty of old Hollywood and so he came out to shoot Ann Lauren of Bella Petite Magazine. We are proud to have an editor that encapsulates the beauty of the petite woman! Her constant drive and dedication ushered petite women onto the fashion scene.
